Hi R,
I have an excel file in which the third column is "date" and others are
"character" and "numeric".
Number of columns are 12
If I use this to read the file in R: x = read.xls("D:\\file.xls")
The problem is that my date column is read in julian dates.
So I am using: x = read.xls("D:\\file.xls",
colClasses= c(rep("character",2),"isodate",rep("character",9)))
But what can I do in case I don't know the number of columns in my
file??
I mean is there any way I can specify the colClass of only third column
and for other columns it can take the default classes??
Regards
Utkarsh
